Coffee Cup Face Art

The coffee cup is no stranger to creativity. For years it has faithfully served as the vessel housing the fuel that ignites our creative juices. Today, the coffee cup has assumed a new role as a creative ambassador and this time it’s not inside, it’s on top.

Coffee Cup Face Art has come alive at universities around the country with a competition launched by Virgin Active. Students upload their work of cupface art on facebook and stand in line to win super cool prizes. The more support they get from their cronies in the form of ‘likes’ the better their chances of winning.

It’s nice to know that these creative pieces are no longer merely destined for the bin. Who knows, we might just find the next Picasso.
